A RAILWAY COLLISION
on 4 BRANCH OF THE NEW
YORK CENTRAL
Between an Express and a Freight
Train, in Which Several Men
We're Wounded.

GKERvA, N. Y, March 10 "A col.
lsiou occurred on ths Auburn BRAT Ch
OF the New York Central railroad at
6:l0 o'clock this evening, few rods
west OF the station at this place, be-
tween the express train fron Roches'
ter and a f,eight train, in which
several men received severe injuriee,
and much damage was done to the
engines and cars. The approach to
the Geneva 8 alton ia by a sharp curve,
ar d the engineer CT the express did
not see the freight uutil an
instant before the collision. In
mediately sfter the accident the
Geneva fire alarm was rung
and the department, accompanied by
hundreds OF persons, has ened to the
scene of the disaster. The situation OF
the engines and contiguous cars makes
it seem marvellous that the engine r5
and firsmen were net crush d to death.
The engines met tquarely, ard stand
on the grougd only little removed
from the rails. Blth pilots and lead
lights were driven under the expresi
engine. The mail car, which was at
tached to the engine Of the express
train, was lifted from its trucks and
carried before it the body Of the ten
der clear on top OF the boiler. The
b,ggsga cars aud all the CoIches es'
capped damage, and the oocu pants were
uniDjured, ss far as can be learned.
The following is list OF the iniur,d.

ALF TAYLOR.
Why He Did Not Receive Republic
an Votes on the First BallOt for
United states Senator.
- HOUSE OF REPREsENTATIyEs,

HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,,
NASHVILLE, Tenn, March Is, 1887.
WHEREAS, The report having gone
over the country to the effect that our
late standard bearer for Governor in
this State had and was losing caste
with the Republican party, and that
the Republicans of the General AS
sembly declined to vote for him on
the first ballot for United States Sens-
tor, and that by his willingness to see
his brother elected United States Sem
ator he was defeated before a confer
ence of Republicans who had met to
select a man to support on the last
ballot for United States Senator by
Col. Hughes. In order to correct this
impression we desire TO say that DOL.
A. A. Taylor has endeared himself
to the Republicans of Tennessee
aud has as many friends in the State
ss any other Republican, and the rea-
son why he was not voted for by the
Republicans on the last ballot for
United States Senator is as follows:
After Gov. Bate had been nominated
by the Democrats in caucus the Re-
publican members met in the hall Of
Representatives the next morning to
decide upon some one to vote for on
the last ballot. 1t had been agreed
and understood all along that we
should cast the last ballot for Col.
Taylor. So in this conference his
name was placed before the conference
by Mr.. McElwee. Mr.. Mynatt placed
the name of Col. Hughes, who was
present at the meeting j ust as the bal
lot was about to be taken Senator
Padgett informed Mr.. McElwee that
Col. Taylor told him that he did not
wish to have the last ballot cast for
him, and Mr.. McElwee, being thus in
formed, withdrew the name OF Col.
Taylor, and no other name was placed
before the conference, and Col.
Hughes was selected without any
opposition. 30 the report at Wash
ington and elsewhere to the effect that
Col. Taylor was defeated by Col.
Hughes because he had expressed q
willingness, as Democrat had to be
elected, to see his brother elevated to
the exalted position of United States
Senator, Ia untrue. We say this much
in justice to Col. Taylor, and to assure
him he occupies a warm place
in the hearts Of the Republicans OF
Tennessee. John E. Mccall, Gus

Lord Lorne's studious Habits.

LONDON, March l6 The absence OF
Lord Lorne from nearly all the social
festivities OF Malta, during the time
that he and the Princess Louise have
been staying in the island, has been
much remarked upon. AS matter Of
fact, Lord Lorne is engaged on a politi-
cal essay of considerable magnitude,
which occupies nearly all his time,
and he never was profes ed diner out
and IL modest enoulh to believe that,
although he has taken advantage OF
the quiet and snug quarters he oc-
cupies in the Saa Antonio palace, to
devote himself to his favorte ocCupa-
tion OF writing. In the meant me ths
Princess goes everywhere and is every
where received with acclamation.

Mr.. and Mrs. Gladstone Visit Her
Majesty

LONDON, Mavch l6.--The visit OF
Mr.. and Mrs. Gladstone to the . Qieeu,
last Wednesday, when thsy were in
vited to dins and stop at the Windsor
Castle, was a notable event. / believe
it is the frat time that Mr.. Gladstone
has ever been invited in this way ex-
cept when he has been in offiCs.' /
hear that Lord Salisbury is very
strongly averse to having the opposi-
ton leaders boycoited by ths court,
as was the foolish custom during the
reign CT Lord B9aconsfeld. The poll
tician who is now most out OF favor
with the Queen is Sir William Har-
court.

The House.

Speaker Clapp asked the indulgence
of the House to give the reasons for
his rulings in the matter of the quo
rum bill. 1t had been very unpleas-
ant for him to rule against the major.
ity. When the Buchanan resolution
was up he had taken particular pains
to inform himself and find out what
was right, after which he could pro-
ceed without hesitation. His invssti-
cation had led him to believe that
while there was no doubt of the right
of the House to compel the attendance
OF absent members, it could not vote
them as present. He had telegraphed
the Hon. John G. Carlisle the exact
situation at the time OF the contro-
yersy over the Buchanan resolution,
and Mr.. Carlisle had answered that if
the constitution required a certain
number to constitute a quorum, that
number must vote, or no action is
valid. Other prominent authorities
we're quoted to the same effect. Speak
or Clapp said the journal was the only
proof before the courts as to whether
the constitutional requirements had
been complied with in the passage Of
any mesgure.
Mr.. Whitthorne said he was sure no
gentleman would doubt his Democ-
Taey. He was now convinced that it
was an attempt to do what was inn
pYac ,icable. He was satisfied that the
Democrats had proceeded with the
understanding that the Republicans
would not oppose the bill in this man
ner, and he therefore moved to pass
this matter over informally. 1t could
be taken up again after other legisla-
tion was completed.
Mr.. Williams (Franklin) moved that
the following order be entered in the
matter: "That the bill having re-
ceived ffty.fve affirmative votes, and
Ave votes against it, and it appearing
that twenty other members were pres
ent, which being q quorum, the
Speaker be directed to announce the
bill as amen ded passed third and last
reading"
Mr.. Golliday spoke in endorsement
k the Speakers ruling. He held that
the minority were standing for con-
stjtutional right. He held that the
Legislature had no right to authorize,
as provided in this bill, the arrest OF
any member by anyone save the Ser
geant-at-Arms.
Mr.. Whitthorne called the previous
question on his molten to pags over
informally. The call was sustained
and the motion prevaIled-yeas, 70;
nays, 2.
Messrs. johnson and Williams vot.
ing no spread, protests on the journal.

medial Measure.

LONDON, March l6.-The Dily Mers
ssys the government has assured the
ULionisE Liberals that 1t intends to
introduce concurrently in Parliament
remedial and repressive Irish propo-
sails. The remedial measure is to be
divided into two parts, one deal
ing with pressing matters, such
as the inclusion OF lesseholders
in the operations Of the land act, and
the suspension Of evlctions; the other,
to be introduced at the end OF the
session dealing with the land purchase
and local government questions. Mr..

BERLIN, March 16.-The church
bill, as passed by the Commission Of
the Oberhaus, grants religious or.
ders restitution of their properties.
The report of the Commission will be
placed before the Chamber on Friday
next The measure fails to conciliats
the Center party, whose fual demands
have been formulated by DR.. Wind
thorst. These are that the permission
accorded in the bill to form bishoprics
in Limburg and OJnabruck be ex-
tended to other dioceses, including
Cologne, Bresau, Munster and Err
meland; that the bill shall strictly
limit and define the powers OF the
State to veto clerical appointments,
and that the discretionary powers Of
the Minister of Worship over the re-
entry of religious orders be defined
aud limited. DIR. Windthorst declares
that there can be no peace between
